Governor Ahmadu Umaru Fintiri has initiated a ₦40,000 support programme specifically designed for 24,000 out-of-school girls in the Fufore Local Government Area of Adamawa State, Nigeria. This initiative is part of the state government's broader strategy to improve educational access and reduce gender disparities among learners. Fintiri emphasized the importance of education as a fundamental tool for fostering social and economic development in the region.

During the launch event, Governor Fintiri highlighted that the financial assistance of ₦40,000 aims to help beneficiaries cover essential educational needs, thereby encouraging their enrolment in schools and promoting retention rates, particularly in rural areas where educational opportunities are often limited. The initiative reflects a commitment from the state government to implement policies that enhance educational access for vulnerable populations, particularly young girls who may face hurdles due to socio-economic factors.

Governor Fintiri reaffirmed the government's intention to persist in investing in educational policies and programmes that not only broaden access but also strengthen human capital development. The initiative signifies a step forward in addressing the challenges faced by out-of-school girls and aligns with the global agenda of ensuring inclusive and equitable quality education for all children, especially girls, who are disproportionately affected by barriers to education.
